Description

My second Ute! With the large bow collar, the new love of my life, and this adorable fabric! The name comes from the name of the fabric, which was just too cute to pass up. I used snaps instead of buttons and lengthened the ties of the collar slightly because I really love being able to tie a huge bow. The cotton is quilters cotton and therefore stiff and holds the bow. Now, when on earth will summer come to allow me to actually wear this thing out of the house?
